Obama Goes After Sen. Scott on Racism in America: GOP Candidates will 'Validate America'

Obama: “I think there is a long history of African-American or other minority candidates within the Republican Party who will validate America and say everything is great and we can all make it. Nikki Haley, I think, has a similar approach. I’m not being cynical about Tim Scott individually. I am maybe suggesting that the rhetoric of ‘Can’t we all get along,’ that has to be undergirded with an honest accounting of our past and our present.”
